Out of all those, I think the R L Stevenson one appeals to me most. I doubt I'll ever get around to buying one though. I was glad to hear even the famous Penultimate Dave has trouble finding pen caps which have buried themselves under paper while he is writing! 😊
You have shown us a fine assembly of pens; my favourite is the Rosetta Stone. FYI the stone is carved in two languages: Egyptian, written in hieroglyphics (top) and demotic script (middle), and Greek (bottom.) It's discovery allowed French scholar Champollion to decipher hieroglyphics for the first time in over a thousand years. Cheers from Australia.
The RL Stevenson clip is supposed to be a belaying pin, which was a wooden peg they they would insert in holes on railings and use as a kind of small post to wrap the ropes of a sailing ship’s rigging.
Sooo, I have a question. You have 10 pens inked-up. What do you do with them?? If you use one colour per day, you will use each three times. Thank you. I have three pens inked and it takes two to three months to run out of ink.

But where is your blue Parker Duofold?

I write letters mostly, about 20x A4 pages per week.
Do NOT under any circumstances reveal why you have two Majohn P 139s!
